Do British passport holders need a visa for Oman?

Covers 11 passports and 80 destinations. Rules older than 30 days are flagged for re-check.

How this tool works

We read the official notice for each pair and record the date. Nothing here is generated; a pair with no written check is not shown.

No visa. British passport holders can visit Oman for up to 14 days without a visa.

Carry a return or onward ticket, proof of accommodation and proof of travel health insurance for border control. For a longer stay you need a visa, which you can apply for online or get on arrival at an airport. Overstay fines can reach 10 rials a day, up to 500 rials.
